Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Chapultepec Castle

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 13 Jul 2022 at 15:13:22 (UTC)

Reason: Forgive the two nominations in a row, but I do have a ten-image backlog even including these, so I am trying to be good here. I think this is a fine image, quite good for showing off the structure as it historically was. I think the dome on the tower is the most obvious change from present day. I've gone with original crop; Given the Detroit Publishing Company's works tend to follow very strict ratios, I believe this is how it would have been published. More accurate than the illustrations that are our only other historic guide. Admittedly, could be lower down in the article, but the article's full of modern photos, so it's hard to say.

Comment I don't think this adds much value to the article. (ps You are not alone in having a backlog, but there are very few voters around these days) Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:33, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Agree. Fuzzy & distant. -- Sca (talk) 13:18, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Aye. We really need to do a recruitment drive. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.9% of all FPs} 15:44, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Adam Cuerden, why not add: "Pictures of the Day are chosen from Wikipedia's Featured Pictures. Wikipedia editors vote on candidates here", at the end of every POTD description? Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:06, 6 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'll try and test it on some shorter ones, but I'm kind of dealing with a family death right now. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.9% of all FPs} 02:44, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Adam Cuerden Sorry for your loss. When you have more time to devote to Wikipedia again we might want to consider this as a change to {{POTD row}}, adding "Vote for featured pictures" to the end of the "Archive" row similar to DYK's a "nominate an article" link. --Ahecht (TALK

Perhaps "Nominate and vote for featured pictures"? And it's kind of alright. I promptly caught COVID and have been sleeping like, 14 hours a day since. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.9% of all FPs} 16:07, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – good EV but it's not photogenic and the trees don't help. I am undecided on voting. Bammesk (talk) 02:00, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
